Do you know how important the ring finger on your left hand is, if you’re right-handed?
Or, to take another tack: Have you ever looked up cat-bite infections on the internet?
I love my Miss Onion-cat, and I have to say she is a hothead and an extremist. I heard her having a fight Saturday morning. I thought she might have caught a rat.
She had caught that deadly creature Crateribus plasticus, the plastic crate. Her claw was hooked into one, and she couldn’t get it out. She was growling and hissing.
I went to lift her foot off, and in her extremity she bit me. Perfectly understandable.
However, no matter how much the doctor suggests it, I don’t want to cut my favorite ring off.
I am now on a regimen of antibiotics, ice, and keeping my hand above my heart. Which makes it hard to type!
